Sanyo CE28WP4 - B with yellow picture

Jan 10, 2006 1 Replies

I posted a couple of weeks ago about my Sanyo CE28WP4 - B widescreen set going wrong wehn my stepson ripped a scart lead from the back. Basically the picture became very washed out and took on a blueish tint whihc was most notable on any dark scenes the set displayed.



I'd had a look inside for anything that I could see that may be obviously wrong but couldn't really see anything. I did clear a lot of the dust out but the first time round that seemed to make the problem worse. After taking the back off the set again I had a prod and a poke around and the set went back to having the blue tint, it was a crap picture but was just about watchable.



I decided to have another go at trying to find anything wrong yesterday but failed again although this time I was able to make the picture much better by adjusting the pot on the flyback for the screen brightness, and playing around with the brightness/colour/contrast controls on the remote. All was well for around 2 hours then the picture stuttered for a second and came back on a yellowish green. Other colours are still displayed but with the yellowish green tint.



Does anyone know the likely problem and more importantly a soloution. I bought the set second hand only a couple of months ago and although I didn't pay much for it I was hoping it would last a bit longer than this.



Any help much appreciated.



If the problem came when the SCART got a shock, verify for dry joints on board..
